Why? (Score:1)
Far be it from me to tell anyone what to do in his or her copious free time, but the one thing you can't say about people who haven't upgraded Perl in just shy of nine years is that they're on the edge of their seats, waiting to upgrade to a new version of Perl.

I tried to run 5.5 and 5.4 with CPAN::Reporter (was not successful with 5.4, but several bugs in modules where fixed). Reason was to help people understand that if they use one feature from newer Perl, their CPAN distribution already does not work on older Perl's and they can use all features - too many CPAN distributions try to be compatible with old Perl, but in reality they are not.
